In a recent episode of PE Pathways, Stephen Fox sat down with Chelsea May, the CEO and co-founder of Kyha. Kyha is an innovative, privacy-focused, AI-driven platform aimed at improving women’s health. They showcased their work at the Mid-Atlantic Capital Conference in Philadelphia this past October.
Kyha addresses a pressing issue: women often struggle to find trustworthy, personalized medical information. This platform connects users with certified experts for deeper insights when needed. The conversation between Fox and May highlighted the unique challenges and opportunities faced by startups, especially those led by an all-female team.
Women’s health technology is growing rapidly. According to a recent survey by Rock Health, investment in female-focused health solutions increased by 70% last year. This reflects both a demand for better services and a shift in societal attitudes towards women’s health issues.
The founders shared practical lessons from their journey, emphasizing the importance of legal groundwork and supportive networks in building a solid business. Their experience shows that diverse teams can lead to innovative solutions. As companies like Kyha thrive, they pave the way for more inclusive and responsive healthcare options.
